i know a fair number of LSx owners in the area and i actually just tried contacting you about a blue GTO, which is getting posted below...

99 heads and cam Pewter T/A on TT2's, i can get the info if needed


05 GTO... 500hp daily driven auto.
vengence ported fast 90/90, AI ported 243 heads, Tri-Star Tigershark cam, Kooks Headers, Magnaflow exhaust, Yank SS3600, 3.91 gear, tuned by the owner, built by the owner.... im sure ive left stuff out


Russ Etheridge's 04 GTO, currently still the LS1 M6 Bolt-on record holder at 12.19@110mph
car currently makes 430hp. Fast 90 w/ Nick Williams 90mm TB, Advanced Induction Ported 241's, STOCK cam, Kooks 1 3/4" longtubes, Bassani catback, Electric Water Pump, 1.85 roller rockers, Pedderized, exedy twindisk clutch, tuned by the Blue GTO's owner... again im sure im leaving something out.




I've also got a black C5 coupe with a stock Ls1 bottom end and stock casted LS6 heads making 430ish at the tires on motor and 560/670 on the juice. hearsay is that a certain orange convertable camaro had a heck of a time keeping up with it. :-)

I sent in an E-Mail about 3-4 days ago about the Blue 05 GTO via the GMHTP website... i hope to hear from you soon.
